NAME
       mkdirp(), rmdirp() - create, remove directories in a path

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
       creates	all  the  missing directories in the given path with the given
       mode (see chmod(2) for the values of mode.)  The protection part of the
       mode  argument  is  modified  by	 the process's file creation mask (see
       umask(2)).

       rmdirp removes directories in path d.  This removal starts at  the  end
       of  the	path and moves back toward the root as far as possible.	 If an
       error occurs, the remaining path is stored in d1.  returns a 0 only  if
       it is able to remove every directory in the path.

       To  use	these interfaces, link in the libgen library by specifying For

       these two errors, returns
